    I bought the v2 model and I am now on my third unit which has been sent from warranty repair. This too is going back for replacement.
    Here is my history of owning this router.
    Original Unit: Kept randomly dropping ADSL connection. Took me ages to eliminate BT, my ISP, my home wiring etc.
    Replacem ...

    My brother went out and bought a Linksys wireless router without reading any reviews or anything. I was unhappy using it because I loved my wired Netgear router, but he had a laptop and needed wireless.
    The router gets very, very hot and drops connection at least once a week. I need to turn it off ...

    I don't recommend any Cisco /LinkSys products in general, the support is not good
    I rather buy other brands now.

    I installed the new style (silver body) WAG54GS (UK) model over a week ago - took under 30 mins to have my existing home network up and running again - seemed pretty easy to set up (and I'm not a techie person) using the CD wizard etc. You need to ensure you have your password from your internet ac ...

    I purchased the speedbooster version the WAG54GS with an adapter from PC World for £54.99. It is different visually in that it is silver and vertically mounted on a stand. Once installed, which took a while as I am a complete novice on wireless connection, it has been reliable. Set up on my ...

    The Linksys WAG54G-UK Router is a useless bit of kit. Buy something better! Ours is always going faulty. I just can't face going to Currys or Comet to get a new one, but I will have to.

    I've purchased several of these and one by one, the ethernet port dies. V2 Firmware 1.00.19. Most likely an overheating issue. Linksys should consider installing a simply chassis fan to their routers!

    I finally replaced my Linksys WAG54G-UK Router this week after several months of weak wireless transmission, dropped connection and became invisible to my PC (switching off and on seemed to fix temporarily). It finally gave up the ghost altogether when it no longer picked up my ADSL connection. I h ...

    I have owned this router for over a year and I have not found it at all reliable. The unit seems to get physically hot, and when this occurs it constantly drops its connection. I'm currently chasing Lynksys for a replacement or refund.

    I have had a Tiscali Broadband connection for a year, and I have used not one, but two of these routers. One fried because I accidentally plugged the wrong power source into it. My fault I know, but you would have thought it would have some idiot proofing. The second works fine as long as you're ...
